"The BBC's Natural History Unit cameras are in Kenya's Masai Mara Reserve for a week of live programmes - and already they have seen some astonishing sights.

On Friday, one of the cameras set up to stream live pictures to the expedition's website 24 hours a day captured the moment a lion took down its prey.

It was a remarkable sequence, and quite possibly the first time such an event had been seen on a live webcam."

Good post; thanks.

Go for the throat - that's the lesson here.

Nature at its most basic AND its finest. I really enjoy these meat hunting videos. Makes me realize that I fit right in. I'll be trying to do the same to a moose in a few days . . . except with a weapon and not my teeth and claws.

Thanks Brotzie,

William,
If you change your mind and do decide to use your teeth and claws please videotape that and post it. /images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

Neat video although I have to say the battle at Kruger battle royal is still my favorite. Cape Buffalos, crocidles, lions all going at it.
